Hi John, Here's the chkdsk report. Looks like a clean bill of health: The type of the file system is NTFS. Volume label is Partition_1....
Curiouser and curiouser! It seems that whenever I use the Acronis 11 boot media, I get the failure at about the same part in the process......
Hi folks, Last night I was doing a backup (TI 11 8101 from the boot CD that Media Builder created... nothing fancy) of my Gateway computer...
Thanks Mustang... I may go ahead and set up a VM with Windows XP for this purpose. Wish me luck. Or, I may just stick with the Acronis recovery CD...
Hi folks, In the past I have used the excellent info here to create a BART PE CD with the Acronis 10 plug in and make that into a USB/Flash...
I'll pop for the extra few bucks on the enclosure in hopes it will give better performance. It should be an amusing new toy.
Thanks for some good information, folks! Marc
Hi folks, (I'm using Acronis TI Home 11 and just installed the lastest build 8101 or thereabouts) Summary: When I buy a big external HD for...
Thanks for providing some further information, of greatest interest to IBM/Lenovo Txx users. In my case, with a T42p, even formatting as FAT /...
Interesting stuff! For the record I've tried using the PEtoUSB utility to format a 256MB key then running AMB on it; this small key doesn't...
I've been using 1 GB keys for BART PE. I've tried (with no success ever) AMB on 128 MB, 256 MB, 512 MB, and 1 GB keys. Marc
I recommend creating a BART PE USB key with the Acronis Plugin. See above posts in this thread for details. My T42p is booting this no problem. It...
OK, I took a key that works for BART PE or DOS booting on my PC, and reformatted it with the PEtoUSB utility. Next I ran AMB (TI 10.0.4942), and...
Indeed I have, and they still fail to boot my T42p. The keys AMB builds boot some computers, not others. The problem isn't with the key or the...
Hi Matt (and others following this), Just to let you know, everything is working fine for me with the BART PE as build by PE Builder / PEtoUSB....
Hi Matt, I've just got about a minute so I'll do the short form here. You can get the PEtoUSB utility free from "cogoding.com" (just google...
Matt, With help from MudCrab and documents created by Mustang (hosted by MudCrab now) to build a BartPE key with the Acronis Plugin that boots...
For those interested in the solution I refered to a few posts up in this thread, this link from February 2006 provided a solution. I believe it...
Oh, one more thing. I followed MudCrab's instructions on his "Having problems...?" page regarding creating the blank image on the USB key...
For what it's worth, I'm using an IBM Thinkpad T42p and have never been able to create a bootable USB key using the Acronis Media Builder (AMB),...
For what it's worth, I've got a BART PE system working on a USB key, and will test it out on my next backup, but gosh it's slow to boot. I still...
This is frustrating enough that I'm now investigating using a BartPE USB key with the Acronis plugin rather than the stand-alone media...
Bootable CDs work fine. I just prefer to have USB keys rather than carying around disks...
OK, here's what I did since my last post. I went in with PTEDIT and looked to see which partition was active. As expected, it was the first...
I'll do this tomorrow; I left my Partition Magic disk at work...
